S4:E39 – “Parappa The Rapper Remastered – Chop Chop Master Onion”

Enter into the dojo of one Chop Chop Master Onion. He’s an onion. Not a wild onion that you may find in your yard or that John cannot find for the life of him, but a real onion. The type you’d put on your pizza or a calzon and sell as a promotional pizza from a big pizza chain. He has it all. He’s got tiny onion disciples. He’s got a dog who wants to be a rapper and also wants to impress a flower he likes. He’s got immortality and a vengeful spirit. Everyone wants to be friends with Chop Chop Master Onion because the opposite may lead towards your untimely demise. Just ask the Deer on the wall. Oh, you can’t. This is the first level, but it also may be your last. Now, kick, Parappa! Kick as if your life depends on it!

Aaron Littleton is your host this week and he’s mixing up video game lore with real lore! John Hurst is your co-host and he’s opening the latest CafePress budget saving scheme for the 2020s.

S4:E38 – Original 1976 Tennessee Trash PSA

This trash just keeps piling up!! What’s a person with an open top convertible to do other than just throw it on the side of the road and give the middle finger to the climate as a whole? That’s just what this Tennessee Trash PSA does and it does it with the most battle damaged car this side of the psychobilly concert! Come see the ad that was played well into the late 80s on television sets all across Tennessee and see who it marks as the enemy (Spoiler: THE ENEMY IS YOU. )

John Hurst is your host and has upgraded the amount of chicken nuggets he orders. Aaron Littleton is your co-host and he is looking to get rid of a mattress stat.

S4:E37 – Knight Rider Theme

Hey Ghosts! Are you a ghost? If you’re a ghost you have to say “Booooo!” At least that’s what this Applesauce container says. It’s really weird that I’m following what an applesauce container says, but that’s because it’s 4 PM and I’m waiting for the reruns of Knight Rider to  hit my TV Screen after school! Look at that guy! He’s cool! Look at his car! It jumps things! Look at this… Other guy? He’s…? And this lady! Who.. uh… I’ll be honest I don’t remember other people on this show because they weren’t doing crazy cool jumps all over the place. Get with the crazy cool jumps, other people! Anyway, it’s time to fight crime so let’s go fight crime, ghost friends!

S4:E36 – World Cup 98 (PS1) – Intro

You get knocked down, but will you ever get back up again? It’s a question posed by Chumbawamba in the 90s and we embraced it in every commercial sense. That’s why when you have a game made by an American company detailing soccer in low polygons with a freakish latex-laden bird mascot, you need something to cover it all with a warm, comforting blanket. That blanket is Chumbawamba and as your see that weirdly detailed in every specific areas bird running down a stock footage street in France, you know everything is okay. Because you’re about to play World Cup 98 for the Playstation 1. And this intro is playing and your cousin just let you be Player 1. You’re the best at Player 1.  I know you are. You’ll get up again.

S4:E35 – Spongerock Music Video

Sometimes you just need to watch a mashup video that hastily combines two properties to celebrate an album that is all about merging media proprieties. Like this fan video of Neil Circierega’s mashup of Queen and the Spongebob Squarepants theme. And that’s fine! What are people in the future going to say about it though? Who cares about them! They don’t know anything! They probably think this is the official version of both tracks! They’re writing thesis’ on the Legend of Zelda song and saying it’s by System of a Down. They’re going to get a Mega-C on that paper and they’re going to not mind because they’re not going to need that in the future future! No, they got a Political Art degree from Cumbersome University! They got dreams! And none of these dreams are Mouth Dreams! Now, leave them alone, they got to listen to the classical station because it’s Gaga O’Clock followed by some mother-effin’ fugues.

(Also? Hey, future student? It’s by the Rabbit Joint. You’re welcome.)

Aaron Littleton is your host this week and he is declaring himself host well before all the hosting duties have been counted. John Hurst is your co-host and he’s starting a pit in this recital.
